THE POULTRY-YARD.
] dnGe for P0mitrn.


The Poultry World saws 1t is desir-
able, where it is possible, to give fowls
ample range. The care is reduced to a
minimum III such cases, and the expense
of keeping is much less. But range is
not absolutely Indispensable. The num-
Der of fowls which can be kept in health
and made pay i'll very limited quarters is
much larger than many, perhaps the most,
suppose. But TO do this it is necessary to
supply what fowls upon a good range OBJ
tain for themselves. Fowls upon an ex-
tensive range obtain plenty of exercise, by
which their health is promoted.
Fowls in narrow quarters must be in
ducei to take corresponding amount of
exercise If they are 10 be kept equally
healthy. To do this various expedicnts
like burying grain, hanging up articles of
food just within their reach, and con-
slant turning up Of the soil must be re-
sorted TO. Fowls upon an extended range
obtain n variety of food, especially of
green food and insects. Fowls in narrow
quarters must be furnished with a variety
of food, especially of green and animal
food. This is not difficult, but it is very
often neglected. Fowls upon an extended
range obtain clean ground, good busting
places, and the like. The first is obtain
able by constantly stirring the soil, using

by furnishing box provided with road
dust, sulphur, and so forth.
In brief, if quarters are kept clean,
variety of food furnished, and exercise
promoted, their health will remain vIgor-
Gus. Some of the finest specimens have
been raised in narrow quarters. But much
greater care is necessary to produce the
same results. it remains exceedingly de-
sirable, where practicable. to furnish a
good range, but there are many men who
are deferred from keeping fowls simply
from the mistaken notion that what is de-
sirable is also indispensable. This notion
ought to be removed, because it is wholly
false. 1t is difficult TO imagine any man,
living outside of the compact parts of a
city, who cannot keep few fowls if he is
willing to take the necessary care. But if
a man who has but limited space desires
TO keep fowls he should understand that he
must supply the things necessary to health
which fowls having free range are able
TO obtain for themselves.

THE DAIRY.
Extra raiions for Hiih.

Sir J. b. Lawes has published a paper
on the experiments being made at Rotham-
stead to determine to what extent the milk
of a COW can be increased in yield by
proper regulation of diet, and how far the
employment of purchased foods or those
of costly nature-such as oilcake or corn
meals to be recommended as economical.
From this paper it appears that the rule at
2othamstead has been that every COW which
during one week has yielded from twenty
eight TO thirty pounds of milk per day
should receive during the following week
four pounds of decorticated cake per day,
and that subsequently for each two pounds
per day, increase or decrease in the milk
Yield the cake should be increased or re-
duced e-fourth of a pound. 1llustra-
tons of the results of this treatment are
given. One COW yielded 1,042 gallons be-
tween calving and drvness. In the third
week after calving her Weld was A. gallons
per day. A thirteen weeks after calving
she had not declined two pounds in the
weekly yield, and even after giving milk
twenty-six weeks the milk record showed
forty one pounds for week. Although as
much as forty five pounds of cake was
given in week, the total amount was only
II pounds to each gallon of milk. In this
instance there appears to be evidence that
the ordinary falling off III the yield was
considerably retarded by the increased
amount of cake consumed.

You cannot be toe careful about the kind
Of water your COWS drink, and the kind of
atmosphere you do your milkingin, if you
want to keep the witches out of the cheese

any source is injurious 10 the health of
cows, and to the whoesomeuess of their
milk. This has been demonstrated over
and over again, and the warning TO dairy
men has been iterated and reiterated
through the agricultural press and dairy
conventions for years. Still it is apparent
to any one who rides through the country
with his eyes open, that the lesson is not
learned, or at least is not needed. Cows
continue to drink sagnant and impure

Prof StuDus, at the Interstate Agri-
cultural Convention at Lake Charles.
renewed his advice to the farmers not
10 sell their cotton seed for less than
80 ton net, and if they could not get
that price, to keep it aud use it as a
fertilizer. Ee pointed out, both from
mathematical and chemical stand
point, that it would benefit them and
tue country if they sold the cotton
seed at a price where it would enable
them TO place the cotton seed meal
back on the land but that to sell it at
less, and not to supply the clements
taken from the soil would sooner or
later impoverish and ruin the land.
Looking al the matter from chem
zeal standpoint, the oil extracted from
the seed was, he said, Of no value as
fertilizer; indeed, it was better to
get rid of it, if possible, as it pre-
vented the decomposition of the seed
that was absolutely necessary to give
1t any value as d fertilizer. Hence. if
tho planter will send his seed to The
NIL, have it crushed and the OIL OK
tracled, and receive the cake or med
back, " be placed on his farm, he
will secure the very best results. THIS
Is possible if the farmer gets 50 a ton
Tor his seed; if any less, it will pay
hin best TO keep his seed.
This is good advice, which the cot
ton planters Of the South would do
well to hearken TO.
